Is the Syfe REIT+ a good investment to diversify into for a beginner investor?

I have been investing in equity (ETFs) and was thinking of diversifying my portfolio into REITs. I thought that since my portfolio does not have much bond portion and my knowledge of REITs is very little. I also do not have plans to study more into REITs first as I'm still focusing efforts on equity research.

Would this be something that I can consider? Or should I just lump/DCA into a REIT ETF instead?

It is a good option cos they actually buy the reits directly and not thru and etf.

in March 03 20202, syfe actually re balanced the to have higher allocation to ABF SG bond ETF due to the heightened volatility. This happened before the sell off for reits.

Hey there! The Syfe REIT+ portfolio is a good way to start investing in Singapore REITs. You get 15 S-REITs e.g. Ascendas REIT, Mapletree Commercial Trust, CapitaLand Mall Trust etc. in one portfolio. What's more, there's no minimum investment, so you can definitely DCA into the REIT+ portfolio to increase your REIT assets month by month without incurring further brokerage costs.

With Syfe REIT+, you also gain exposure to Singapore government bonds via the ABF Bond Index Fund. This helps to cushion your portfolio impact during adverse market conditions.
